  1. It’s LA. It was a 4.4. We’re used to it.

    Edit: Malika Andrews grew up in Oakland. No lack of experience there.

    Hm. So this is how y’all feel about tornadoes.

    Decent sized guy, I just hung up some stuff and I was proud that none of it fell down lol

    Wow. She was cool and calm through that entire process

    More worried about the crew and production than herself. And keeps things moving without being dramatic.

    Malika is a pro’s pro.

    Despite the magnitude, that looked like quite a jolt.

    She from the Bay.

    Unless it’s more than 5 seconds or you see stuff falling down, no biggie.

    I’ve been here almost 30 years and this one was a strong one that lasted a bit too long. Haven’t felt one that forceful in a while. Not surprised it fucked up their studio for a moment.

    “Rebecca I appreciate you just bearing with us” is crazy 💀

    Especially when Rebecca looked like this 😨

    I don’t know where Malika is from, but she sure handled it like a person from CA. I am born and raised here and earthquakes for me, and my family/friends, are like whatevers most of the time they happen. I take it for granted cuz I live here but I always remember the time years ago when a bunch of my friends were at a party at a friend’s house and an earthquake happened. Everyone in the room just continued talking, but my friend’s boyfriend from Ohio started freaking out and yelling, running around the room trying to find some place to go for safety, under a doorway. Everyone in the room stopped talking and just stared at him. My friend was so embarrassed, but I forget sometimes that not everyone experiences so many of these throughout their life and they can be scary for those that do not.

  13. Pro as fuck. That was awesome. She’s who you want around in an emergency.

  14. Malika, tell us you’re from the Bay Area without telling us you’re from the Bay Area.
